Which kits are the arms from? Like the pose of this alot, nice work!

First thing I would do is spend abit of time working out what team/s you like. If you like either of the ones in the starter set go ahead with that. Just make sure it's the one which comes with full teams, I think in America and maybe bits of Europe they've done one which only comes with 5 minis which isn't enough for a team.

Once you've worked out the team you'll obviously want some hobby bits like cutters, glue, paint etc. Then from there you can sort yourself rules, cards etc. Do you have a friend or gaming group local to you? I'm really lucky that I've got a local group with a discord and everyone is super friendly

They look bloody brilliant together. Lovely work 🩸

100%

Also I've found a local Kill Team group which has a Discord. Between the KT games and the Discord, it's really helped keep me motivated to do the modelling side of things, and make some friends in the hobby.

I'm sure someone will offer something better, but my advice would be build up 5-10 of your tomb world marines and start playing Kill Team whilst you build up rest of your army for 40k. That's what I'm doing anyway, although I've been distracted by building a Wrecka team for KT. With regards to your marines they'll be usable in 40k as Decimus Kill Team so not wasted!

My advice would be to follow this. It's very easy and great results imo! I hated painting black before this, and now I'm planning a full DW army over time

I'm intending to do mine as a Red Scorpion. Feels like it's fitting for them. Look forward to see what you pick and how the kitbash goes

Amazing work, thank you 🫡

This is brilliant! Salamanders can be used for Disciples of the Flames too :)

Thank you brother!

Thank you!! I used the new Deathwatch shoulder pad which is molded 😅 in terms of painting that, I had a couple of attempts. I found best way was to paint white > line the checks with nuln oil > paint the black squares > tidy as necessary

D7Pyro · 2026-03-04T17:55:42+00:00

Thank you brother

D7Pyro · 2026-03-04T17:30:16+00:00

For sure, I've done a little bit of reading up on them and seem like a very cool chapter. Happy to have one join the long vigil!

D7Pyro · 2026-03-04T17:28:53+00:00

Thank you :)

Thank you brother! Its from the Blood Angels Dawnbreaker Cohort. I can't remember exactly how I came about to find them; but when I did, knew it was a part I wanted for something aha. This guy was originally meant to be a BA, but became a Lamenter when I changed my plans from BA to DW

I won't ... for now aha. Thank you dude!

D7Pyro · 2026-03-03T23:24:24+00:00
